With picks # 6,8,19 & 22 Freo are now well positioned to trade further up the draft board.

(I know, I know...who cares)

One of their last two picks will go to Geelong for Clark

Carlton have finally recruited an actual quality midfielder.

they may finally move out of the bottom 6 next year

They could have just drafted him 4 years ago.

Mitchell, O'Meara. Who else could go?

Interesting change of plans from the hawks. I hope it blows up in their face..... But I'm probably asking for too much.

Gunston or Wingard maybe


The news of the day from Melbourne’s perspective was not its involvement in trades but rather, the re-signing of a raft of players including Kade Chandler who was being courted by the Crows. The seven players include senior listers Oskar Baker and Toby Bedford and rookies Mitch Brown, Chandler, Majak Daw, Deakyn Smith and Daniel Turner. This leaves the club with three players left uncontracted - Michael Hibberd, Marty Hore and rookie Kye Declase although it has been reported that Hibberd has been offered a one year deal. It’s looking very much like there’s not much room left for more than 2 or 3 newcomers at the draft. 

Done Deals

9. Collingwood trade their round two selection (22) to Fremantle for their round two selection (27) and a future third-round pick.
10. Fremantle trade a future second-round pick and future fourth-round pick to Gold Coast for Will Brodie, a second-round pick (19) and two picks from round four (61, 69).
11. Fremantle trade Adam Cerra to Carlton for pick six and a future third-round pick.
12. Tim O’Brien (Hawthorn) joins the Western Bulldogs as an unrestricted free agent.
13. In a three-way trade, the Western Bulldogs traded Lewis Young to Carlton.
Carlton traded Sam Petrevski-Seton to the West Coast Eagles.
The West Coast Eagles traded their round three selection (52) to the Western Bulldogs.

If we're only taking 1 or 2 picks into the draft then I would presume that we would move on pick 37, 49 and 57 into something better for this year or into next. 49 and 57 may come in by half a dozen spots or more and could be valuable for clubs still wanting points.

Capturing a creature like Powell - Pepper should require an actual lure.

Makes a bit of sense why Freo is entertaining trading Lobb to GWS.  He is taking up a could chunk of Salary cap room, off load him and add O'Meara.  They will get Clark deal done with pick 22, Pick 8 would get the O'Meara deal done maybe with a Hawthorn Pick. 

Can't believe Rory Lobb would be on 700K as suggested on trade shows last night....Massive overs for a player who has never shown more than bits and pieces.

You can't see GWS paying the entire amount if the trade happens

Just to light a fire... what about James Sicily to our backline to free up Mr H Petty to roam forward in the TMAC role.  A big clunker of marks.

A reverse Frawley if you will....

I think Mitchell sees him as the next captain, so doubt he'll let him go.

I like the idea of a reverse Frawley though haha.

would prefer Jimpey i think we've got the height down there already

Is the trade period always this boring? Or is it just because this year we have had something far more enjoyable still in the front of our minds? This is a serious question. In previous years, because we've had little else to be enthusiastic about, trading and drafting became the highlights for us. But were other years as slow and boring as this one?

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
